Rebecca Black, RET
Hi! I’m Rebecca, a certified Rapid Eye Technician. I discovered Rapid Eye Technology (RET) in 2020 and immediately saw the benefits for myself as a method to heal, relieve stress, and process emotions. My practice is located in Draper, UT for in-person sessions, and anywhere with an internet connection for virtual sessions.
My journey began in 2006 when I moved from Louisiana to Utah to study Music Therapy at Utah State University. I was majoring in Vocal Performance at the time, when I discovered music therapy and realized that music had always been therapy in my life. So, I decided to learn more about why people do what they do and how I can help them. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Vocal Performance and Bachelor of Science in Music Therapy from Utah State University in 2011.
Music Therapy led me to work with varying populations, such as special education, adult mental health, geriatric, adolescent with eating disorders, and hospice (my favorite!). I took several years off professional work to be a stay-at-home mom to my 3 daughters, all the while nurturing a long-standing passion for psychology, often reading anything I could find or listening to podcasts on the subject.
Fast forward to 2020, in the midst of the global pandemic, I noticed behaviors reflecting my own trauma and mental health appearing and that’s when I discovered RET. Within the very first session, I knew I had never experienced a healing method that compared to Rapid Eye. I felt seen, heard, and validated. Instead of just talking about my problems, I loved the holistic aspect of RET, knowing there was something I could physically do to create lasting change and rewire neural pathways in the brain! It was only a matter of time before I knew I would pursue certification to assist others in their healing journeys.
One last thing about me as a clinician - anything I ask of my clients, I am doing or working on in my personal therapy or RET sessions. I truly believe it is essential to do my own inner work. Each day one gets to choose to create the life they want with intention.
In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, spending time with my husband and three daughters and our Bernese mountain dog, Beau, playing piano and singing, lifting weights, and reading all types of books.
